Book Synopsis Koumeterium Messolonghi by : Etréstles
Download or read book Koumeterium Messolonghi written by Etréstles and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-10 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Koumeterium Messolonghi es el Valle de las Luces, donde pragmatiza toda lesa mal herencia de no saber obrar con humildad o soberbia todas las vidas descursadas, el estímulo romántico que roza el infinitesimal contacto de estímulo Teomesolongui, de la mano que toca nuestra vida, del Dios Universal entumecido, meciendo nuestros sentidos a la luz de las luces de la casta Humana. Todo aquel desconocimiento no queda como el balde en la superficie del pozo sin hundirse, se hunde para luego remontar. Mesolongui es una gran Pira de Lavandas, Lirios y Lotos, renaciendo en los brazos de un Palo Santo. La descompresión celular de cada habitante de Mesolongui se reconvierte reciclada en un cúmulo de aromas frontales y volátiles para los nasones esferoides del Mundo Espiritual para vivir en los brazos del Señor y su Obra, siempre con Valentía ante cada fenómeno, que atente a paralizar, toda continuidad de amar el tiempo versus romanticismo, en los brazos de la existencia, de propagar mas allá de toda vivida y no vivida mueca de la Vida Eterna, sin temor a los temores infames del poderío ficticio del Hombre. Cerca del jardín de los héroes de Mesolongui, se encuentran los restos de los que murieron en la gran salida. Fue una legendaria lucha por la libertaria revolución de 1821 en Grecia, exactamente en Mesolongui. La tumba de Markos Botsaris y la estatua del gran helenófilo lord Byron se encuentran en este jardín. Cierta vez me encontraba buscando un libro, y este era inevadiblemente de tendencia oriental. Solía recordarme a mi maestro, el monje Dada Virajánanda, hablándome de los procesos del tiempo, del ayer, del hoy y del mañana; que todos a la vez eran una pura unidad. Que la muerte física tenía que ser de satisfacción espiritual, para que el espíritu no se desconecte de su cuerpo desechable. "Creo que en ningún lugar donde habitan las almas terrenales, habrá de poder encontrar más vida que aquí en el Cementerio de Mesolongui...". "Más allá de todo metal del Odio de todo Dios no oído, más allá de todo mal de tímido Odio no he Oído".

Download or read book Poemas y El Alma written by Noelia CastellóN and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-09 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nací en Manicaragua, las Villas, descendiente de una familia humilde. Creo que mi vida comenzó cuando a los siete u ocho años me separaron de mi madre y me llevaron para La Habana, capital de Cuba. Allí mis hermanas mayores residían y empecé a estudiar los grados primarios. Ya cursando grados primarios, a los diez años empecé a escribir mis primeras composiciones e historias así como un diario que siempre cargaba con él para todos lados. Tuve mi primer maestro Juan Marquetti Lastra (de los famosos hermanos Marquetti de Alquízar-Habana, todos negros y profesionales) que marcó pautas excelentes en la que aprendí de él buenas lecciones de moral y cívica. Siempre me llevaba el consejo certero de que "no dejara de escribir...que ya se podía creer todo lo que dijera". A los pocos años me vi en los cementerios donde sentía que allí se enriquecía mis deseos de escribir, en el póstumo silencio que ofrecen los muertos, porque los vivos no dejan concentrar mucho a uno. Estudié en el tecnológico Osvaldo Herrera en Rancho Boyeros y Lombillo Ciudad Habana, estudié telegrafía y operación de larga distancia, teniendo allí el cargo de Resp. de cultura a nivel del plantel. Participé en varios talleres literarios, así como en el Concurso Nacional a la Mujer Trabajadora, auspiciado por la CTC de trabajadores de Cuba donde obtuve el segundo lugar. Participé en encuentros de cultura con poemas míos que fueron mencionados. La Federación Nacional de Mujeres Cubanas auspició un concurso "Te ofrezco mis manos" obteniendo mención. Participé en el concurso "Mario Muñoz Monroy" del ministerio de Comunicaciones en Cuba obteniendo premios y reconocimientos. Siempre seguí escribiendo ya que mi trabajo proporcionaba la posibilidad de seguir incursionando en este ámbito. Fui supervisora de Radio y Tv en Comunicaciones en Cuba hasta que emigré a los Estados Unidos en el año l994 trabajando en varias actividades, hasta el 2008 en que decido ponerme a escribir con más ahinco y desde ahí he continuado hasta el momento en que he recopilado cerca de 5,000 poemas. Publiqué en el año 2011. "Donde nace el Poema" y "Manifiesto de Pasión" en el mismo año. Próximamente saldrá un poemario de sonetos y haikus. Participo activamente en el espacio Poemas del Alma desde el 2009, donde feliz comparto mi actividad como escritora.

Book Synopsis The Eagle and the Virgin by : Mary Kay Vaughan
Download or read book The Eagle and the Virgin written by Mary Kay Vaughan and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2006-03-13 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the fighting of the Mexican Revolution died down in 1920, the national government faced the daunting task of building a cohesive nation. It had to establish control over a disparate and needy population and prepare the country for global economic competition. As part of this effort, the government enlisted the energy of artists and intellectuals in cultivating a distinctly Mexican identity. It devised a project for the incorporation of indigenous peoples and oversaw a vast, innovative program in the arts. The Eagle and the Virgin examines the massive nation-building project Mexico undertook between 1920 and 1940. Contributors explore the nation-building efforts of the government, artists, entrepreneurs, and social movements; their contradictory, often conflicting intersection; and their inevitably transnational nature. Scholars of political and social history, communications, and art history describe the creation of national symbols, myths, histories, and heroes to inspire patriotism and transform workers and peasants into efficient, productive, gendered subjects. They analyze the aesthetics of nation building made visible in murals, music, and architecture; investigate state projects to promote health, anticlericalism, and education; and consider the role of mass communications, such as cinema and radio, and the impact of road building. They discuss how national identity was forged among social groups, specifically political Catholics, industrial workers, middle-class women, and indigenous communities. Most important, the volume weighs in on debates about the tension between the eagle (the modernizing secular state) and the Virgin of Guadalupe (the Catholic defense of faith and morality). It argues that despite bitter, violent conflict, the symbolic repertoire created to promote national identity and memory making eventually proved capacious enough to allow the eagle and the virgin to coexist peacefully.

Download or read book Carlos Monsiv‡is written by Linda Egan and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2001-09 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of MexicoÕs foremost social and political chroniclers and its most celebrated cultural critic, Carlos Monsiv‡is has read the pulse of his country over the past half century. The author of five collections of literary journalism pieces called cr—nicas, he is perhaps best known for his analytic and often satirical descriptions of Mexico CityÕs popular culture. This comprehensive study of Monsiv‡isÕs cr—nicas is the first book to offer an analysis of these works and to place Monsiv‡isÕs work within a theoretical framework that recognizes the importance of his vision of Mexican culture. Linda Egan examines his ideology in relation to theoretical postures in Latin America, the United States, and Europe to cast Monsiv‡is as both a heterodox pioneer and a mainstream spokesman. She then explores the poetics of the contemporary chronicle in Mexico, reviewing the genreÕs history and its relation to other narrative forms. Finally, she focuses on the canonical status of Monsiv‡isÕs work, devoting a chapter to each of his five principal collections. Egan argues that the five books that are the focus of her study tell a story of ever-renewing suspense: we cannot know Òthe endÓ until Monsiv‡is is through constructing his literary project. Despite this, she observes, his work between 1970 and 1995 documents important discoveries in his search for causes, effects, and deconstructions of historical obstacles to MexicoÕs passage into modernity. While anthropologists and historians continue to introduce new paradigms for the study of MexicoÕs cultural space, EganÕs book provides a reflexive twist by examining the work of one of the thinkers who first inspired such a critical movement. More than an appraisal of Monsiv‡is, it offers a valuable discussion of theoretical issues surrounding the study of the chronicle as it is currently practiced in Mexico. It balances theory and criticism to lend new insight into the ties between Mexican society, social conscience, and literature.
Book Synopsis World Literature in Spanish [3 volumes] by : Maureen Ihrie
Download or read book World Literature in Spanish [3 volumes] written by Maureen Ihrie and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2011-10-20 with total page 1509 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Containing roughly 850 entries about Spanish-language literature throughout the world, this expansive work provides coverage of the varied countries, ethnicities, time periods, literary movements, and genres of these writings. Providing a thorough introduction to Spanish-language literature worldwide and across time is a tall order. However, World Literature in Spanish: An Encyclopedia contains roughly 850 entries on both major and minor authors, themes, genres, and topics of Spanish literature from the Middle Ages to the present day, affording an amazingly comprehensive reference collection in a single work. This encyclopedia describes the growing diversity within national borders, the increasing interdependence among nations, and the myriad impacts of Spanish literature across the globe. All countries that produce literature in Spanish in Europe, Africa, the Americas, and Asia are represented, covering both canonical authors and emerging contemporary writers and trends. Underrepresented writings—such as texts by women writers, queer and Afro-Hispanic texts, children's literature, and works on relevant but less studied topics such as sports and nationalism—also appear. While writings throughout the centuries are covered, those of the 20th and 21st centuries receive special consideration.
Book Synopsis Bachata and Dominican Identity / La bachata y la identidad dominicana by : Julie A. Sellers
Download or read book Bachata and Dominican Identity / La bachata y la identidad dominicana written by Julie A. Sellers and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-09-24 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachata--a guitar-based romantic music that debuted in Santo Domingo's urban shantytowns in the 1960s--is today one of the hottest Latin genres. Still, fans and musicians have not forgotten the social stigma the genre carried for decades. This book interweaves bachata's history and development with the socio-political context of Dominican identity. The author argues that its early disfavor resulted from the political climate of its origins and ties between class and race, and proposes that its ultimate acceptance as a symbol of Dominican identity arose from its innovations, the growth of the lower class, and a devoted following among Dominican migrants. La bachata--una musica de guitarra que se estreno en los barrios populares de Santo Domingo en los anos 60--hoy, es uno de los generos latinos mas populares. No obstante, sus aficionados y sus exponentes recuerdan el estigma social asociado que conllevo por decadas. Este libro entreteje la historia y el desarrollo de la bachata con el contexto socio-politico de la identidad dominicana. La autora plantea que su desaprobacion temprana resulto del clima politico en que nacio y los vinculos entre raza y clase social. Propone que su aceptacion final como simbolo de identidad dominicana surge de sus innovaciones, el crecimiento de la clase baja y sus seguidores leales entre los migrantes dominicanos.
Book Synopsis Días de lluvia by : Montserrat Lunati
Download or read book Días de lluvia written by Montserrat Lunati and published by Aris and Phillips Hispanic Cla. This book was released on 2018 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Writers, publishers, readers and scholars have stopped apologising for the short story: the genre is no longer a bad investment, a trial-exercise for a novel or a minor entertainment, as demonstrated by exceptional writers with an almost exclusive dedication to it, such as Jorge Luis Borges, Alice Munro, Quim Monzâo or Cristina Fernâandez Cubas. With deep roots in classic and medieval literatures, and great achievements in the nineteenth- and twentieth-centuries, the genre of the short story, which benefits from the linguistic tightness of poetry and the narrative comforts of the novel, has finally been recognised as having a (hybrid) identity of its own. This volume re-edits and expands a previous bilingual collection published in 1997. The first edition included stories by twelve writers: Pilar Cibreiro, Cristina Fernâandez Cubas, Paloma Dâiaz-Mas, Adelaida Garcâia Morales, Lourdes Ortiz, Laura Freixas, Marina Mayoral, Mercedes Abad, Rosa Montero, Maruja Torres, Soledad Puâertolas and Marâia Eugenia Salaverri. The present edition adds another four: Nuria Amat, Juana Salabert, Luisa Castro and Berta Marsâe. The stories gathered in this second edition were written between 1980 and 2010, and testify to the richness and vitality of women’s writing in contemporary Spain. With the original texts in Spanish as well as facing-page English translations, an Introduction, notes, and bio-bibliographical information on each author, this volume is a useful tool for students of the Spanish language and culture at all levels. It includes a selection of secondary reading on Spanish women writers and a selection of anthologies of Spanish short stories since 1997"--
